Yokohama Bay Brewing Yokohama Front Store announces a scallop-dashi salt ramen event
Yokohama Bay Brewing's Yokohama Front Store announced a ramen event on Instagram for "today and tomorrow." In addition to the owner's handmade salt ramen with scallop stock, the taps will feature Yokohama Bay Brewing staples alongside beers from Kyoto Brewing and UCHU BREWING.
Hop BroThe ramen event at the Yokohama Station West Exit is pretty daring. Yokohama Bay Brewing Yokohama Front Store is announcing that it's serving owner-made scallop-dashi salt ramen for today and tomorrow only.
MugiWhat! Ramen at a beer pub!? And it's scallop-dashi salt ramen, which already sounds delicious just from the words!
Hop BroAnd here's the thing: they slowly draw out the scallop's umami, and the chashu is finished with four hours of low-temperature cooking, so it's seriously done. The noodles are thin noodles from Mikawaya Seimen, so it really feels like something that could stand up to a ramen shop.
MugiWait, what's low-temperature cooking? Is it like gently putting the meat in a hot spring? The kind that makes the chashu moist and tender?
Hop BroPretty much. Instead of tightening it all at once with high heat, they cook it gently, so it gets a soft texture. And with the combination of clear chicken broth and scallops, the umami layers on top of each other.
MugiWhoa, now I'm curious about the beer too! What does `TODAY'S BEER ON TAP` look like?
Hop BroIt's packed with Yokohama Bay Brewing's house labels, and with Bay Pilsner, Bay Amber, Bay Weiss, and IPA styles too, it's a really wide tap lineup. That's what makes this place feel like itself: it doesn't stop at ramen.
MugiThere are too many names for my brain to keep up! Gocheko! and GOOOOOAAAAAL IPA are way too energetic in their naming!
Hop BroOn top of that, they have Kyoto Brewing's "Mariko", Pilsner Urquell, and UCHU BREWING's "Space Pop Mosaic", so tasting side by side is fun. You can play around with everything from light, crisp pilsners to aromatic IPAs to match the saltiness of the ramen.
MugiThat hits hard when it's this close to the station! It seems like both my stomach and mood would be satisfied, so it's the right call from the first drink.
Hop BroYeah, the good thing is that it works whether you're coming for the ramen or for the beer. That kind of balance between food and beer really shows the shop's character.
MugiIt's decided then! First eat the salt ramen, then wash it down with beer! If it's only today and tomorrow, there is no reason not to go!
Hop BroAll right, then I'll take the Bay Pilsner and you can go with the scallop salt ramen. End with the two of us eating and drinking our way to the best possible finish, and that's settled, right?
MugiAgreed! Both the ramen and the beer are the stars, and they're both delicious too. Yokohama Front Store is unfair!
At THE YOKOHAMA FRONT, on the second floor in the Yokohama Station West Exit area, the "Yokohama Bay Brewing Yokohama Front Store" announced on Instagram that it will host a ramen event. In the post, it said that for "today and tomorrow," it will serve the owner's handmade "salt ramen with scallop stock." The dish slowly extracts the umami from scallops, and the chashu is finished with four hours of low-temperature cooking. It is paired with thin noodles from Mikawaya Seimen, creating a bowl that lets you enjoy the combination of clear chicken broth, also used in chicken rice, and scallops.
The published `TODAY'S BEER ON TAP` also shows a tap lineup that is typical of the shop and quite broad. Centered on Yokohama Bay Brewing's house beers, it includes Bay Pilsner, Beer Terrace, Bay Amber, Gocheko!, Bay Dark, Bay Weiss, Yuzu Weiss, Apple Weiss, Flatland, Travelers, Uncle Rinne, Freedom, With Friends, Pedaling for IPA, GOOOOOAAAAAL IPA, Mellow Walk IPA, and more.
Also featured are Kyoto Brewing's "Mariko", Pilsner Urquell, and UCHU BREWING's "Space Pop Mosaic", making it a lineup that pairs easily with ramen and beer. At this beer pub near the station, one of its strengths is how easy it is to build everything from the first drink with a meal to a tasting comparison.
Even if you visit for the ramen, or stop by for the beer, it is an event you can enjoy either way, and the post showed Yokohama Bay Brewing's trademark balance of food and beer.
